Hold Her When I'm Not Around

Skylar
When I saw Jordan re-enter the room I looked at her. " I'm gonna go drop Christina off at my mom and dad's for the day, do you wanna come with me and just go straight to the concert or do you want me to come back for you?" I asked her. " Or what do you want to do?"

Zacky.
I walked down the road some more with Jimmy at my side before walking into a coffee shop to grab a hot cup of coffee. I pulled out my money clip and bought the two of us coffee and i bought myself a bagel before leaving.

Matt's feet carried him back into the venue, he'd had a nice jog. It was refreshing to be able to just get away from the busy life. He walked into the bus, and straight to the bathroom. The shower in there was tiny and Matt's large frame was a tight squeeze. He preferred to take a shower in the venue but since they'd arrived earlier than anticipated no body was there to let them in.

---

Jordan nibbled on her lip, before sighing out. "I'll ride with you." She said, knowing no matter how much she drew out the time she still had to face the music sooner or later. And since her and Skylar had put this off for so long it was going to be a mess, so getting it out way was better than dwelling on the possibilities.

Skylar
I smiled gently at her. "It'll be okay hun" i said patting her shoulder. "We'll be okay, you'll have it better than i will. I have to tell Matt who has a horrible temper that he has a six year old daughter" i picked up Christina and looked at Jordan. "Well come on" i said befote walking towards the door.

Zack
I eventually made it back to the venue where i got on the bus and walked straight back to my bunk. Ignoring everone who called my name. I kicked off my shoes and slid inside staring at the velvet colored top.

@ What A Beautiful Lie
Matt furrowed his brow as he heard his friends calling for Zack. Sighing he exited the bathroom, a towel wrapped around his waist and water droplets adorned his chest and arms. Moving to his bunk he grabbed a pair of boxers from a little cubby beside them. Pulling them on he unwrapped the towel then used it to dry the rest of his body.

---

Jordan followed Skylar out the door, pulling it shut and making sure it was locked. Moving to her friends car, she sat into the passenger side. This was going to be a long day, the only good thing to come from it was the music.

Skylar
The drive to my parents house was short and sweet. Getting out of there not so much, I got the whole " Why are you going to a concert, you're a parent you should be taking care of your child" lecture until I told them it was to see Matt. Then they wished me the best of luck. I walked out of the house and began the hour long drive to the venue. I looked over at Jordan. " Hey atleast we get to have some fun before hand. We're not working or taking care of the kids for once" I chuckled giving her a smile.

Zack
I yawned slightly as I laid in my bunk staring at the ceiling. I pulled out my phone and began to play on it, wondering what to do. Suddenly I heard a knock on the door, " The venue is now open" I heard Johnny shout. I got out of my bunk and walked towards the front of the bus seeing the guys getting off. I decided to wait for Matt who was still getting dressed.

@ What A Beautiful Lie
Matt finished getting dressed before grabbing a pair of his aviators. Sighing he walked off the bus, not really caring that Zack was waiting for him. His body guard was waiting for him out side. Not that he really needed on it was mainly to keep the fans away. So seeing him standing there meant fans were already lining up.

---

Jordan sighed a she stared out the window. "Yeah," she said. "So much fun, please tell me they have a bar there." She groaned looking over at her lifelong friend. The closer they got to the venue the more nervous and anxious she got. "You know they've changed a lot, and they could be complete assholes."

Skylar
I pulled up to the parking lot that had a few cars in it and grabbed the closest parking space. I sighed and grabbed our all-access passes. " Here goes nothing" I said handing Jordan her pass. I put mine around my neck and shut off my car's engine, getting out I closed the door and locked it, looking at my best friend "and I know they've changed a lot. If they're complete assholes then it's a good thing that we're not with them anymore. would you want to date a complete asshole, I know I wouldn't." Once we got to the gate of the venue, the guard checked us out " We'll have a guide take you to the guys" he said giving us a smile.

Zack
I looked at Matt and sighed. He hasn't been the same since him and Sky broke up. I looked up to see Jason Berry walking towards us. " Yo, you guys have two fans with all access passes headed your way. So you two try to cheer up" he said pointing to Matt and I. "Were names mentioned?" I asked. " I think they said Skylar and Jordan or something like that."

@ What A Beautiful Lie
Matt stopped turning to look at Jason, "who?" He questioned. Jordan and Skylar were two names he was used to hearing together, but there not common together. Jason froze shocked at Matt sudden outburst. "What where their names?"

---

Jordan turned looking at Skylar, "what happens to fun first?" She nearly gasped, she hadn't wanted to do this in the first place. So being dragged to this concert was one thing but actually having to face the man that broke her heart was something she was still trying to work the nerve to.

Zack
I looked at Matt and I saw two females in the distance being led by Matt Berry. " Um...don't they look familiar to you Matt?" I asked pointing out the two girls who stopped and stared at us. The stood there like deer in the headlights before slowly walking towards us again. I could hear their voices. It was definitely Skylar and Jordan. I perked up and instantly began to walk towards them.

Skylar
"I guess we gotta deal with this first before we can have fun" I said then the band came into view and we froze. There was Matt. I watched as Zack began to walk towards us when we started moving again. "Here goes nothing..."I mumbled quietly

@ What A Beautiful Lie
Matt's eyes trailed to Skylar, his eyes taking in her body. She'd defiantly grown up, his eyes moved to her face. She was a sight for sore eyes, he couldn't believe she still look like the girl he fell in love with in high school. He didn't think this would ever happen, when he left her she was broken. He'd talked to his mother and she'd stopped by and visited at time or two. Then when he asked and she didn't have answers, he stopped asking.

---

Jordan's eyes took in Zack, before she quickly adverted her gaze. She so wanted a drink, not ready to face her past. She'd done it in high school a time or two, but that was different years hadn't past and she didn't have a child then. Biting her lip she sighed, placing her hands in her back pockets, something she did when she was nervous and didn't know what to do with her hands.

Skylar
When we finally reached the guys I looked at all of them. Johnny was still short as shit, Jimmy still the tall lanky fuck I remembered, Zacky had gotten some facial hair, and Brian still had his fucking smirk. Then there was Matt. He changed so much. He had more muscle, he was covered in tattoos now, but his hazel eyes didn't change one bit. "Hey..." I breathed out, putting my hands in my pockets as I looked away from his face.

Zacky
I smiled slightly when I saw Jordan. Man did I regret breaking up with her. "Hey" I said walking over to her. "I didn't think you'd come see us. I thought you stopped listening to us" i said. " Sky convinced me to go..."she muttered quietly, avoiding my eyes.

@ What A Beautiful Lie
Matt tried to smile but his face stayed frozen, he couldn't believe she was standing in front of him. After all the years of neither contacting the other she is the first one to break. That though made him smirk, "hey." He greeted her, he noticed that the others had left, and Zack was talking to Jordan.

---

Jordan sighrd looking over at Matt and Skylar, "I'm only here for moral support." She said, finally working up the courage. Seeing him after all these year, it brought back a lot of good memories. But with the good comes the bad, and all the hatred she'd held for him hit her like a ton of bricks. And here she thought she was over all that.

Skylar
I looked at him and saw that he was smirking. " I didn't give in Matt. I'm here for one reason and one reason alone. But it seems like you haven't changed at all. " I said softly. "I shouldn't have even come here. "

Zacky
I looked at Jordan. She was still pissed at me for what I had done, I sighed quietly and rubbed the back of my neck. "I'm sorry" I murmured quietly

@ What A Beautiful Lie
Matt sighed, "look I'm sorry." He said, before motioning to a door that lead inside. "Want to go find a place to talk?" He asked, actually wanting to catch up.

---

Jordan sighed, "that would have been nice to hear like when you got back from tour the first time." She told him, "oh wait, you were to busy fucking groupies to care." She scoffed, before turning and walking over towards Skylar and Matt.

Skylar
I sighed quietly and followed him. I couldn't really object I spent six hundred dollars on these passes I couldn't really let them go to waste. "So..What has been going on with you?" he asked. I looked at him and hesitated. "I...I've been trying to figure out how to tell you that our 'false alarm' wasn't so false" I said quietly. His hazel eyes showed confusion. I let out a deep breath and ran my hands over my face. " Matt...you...you have a daughter..." I said quietly

Zacky
I watched as she tried to go with Matt and Skylar but I grabbed her arm. " I'm not the only one to blame here Jordan!" I said to her. " You fucking cheated on me to. So don't try and pin it all on me. I apologized and instead of breaking up with me, instead of yelling at me, you cheated on me. I walked in on you, the girl that I fucking love moaning out some douche bag's name!"

@ What A Beautiful Lie
Matt blinked at her, "what?" He nearly yelled at her. "I." He started then stopped. "I have a child." He gulped, "and you didn't bother about telling before now." He said trying to keep from getting angry. He'd been working on it, but since it was decided that it would be better not to fuck random girls. It supposedly helps with the anger, though he thought that it just made him more irritable.

---

Jordan scoffed at him. "I didn't cheat, I told you it was over you just never took the hint." She snapped back at him. "And you never loved me, if you did then you would have asked me to wait and not suggest we take a break." She shook her head, "taking a break meant we were broken up." She said still trying to drive it into his head.

Skylar
"It took me this long so save up six hundred dollars to tell you! How else was I supposed to tell you? Fucking call you? Hello Matt, I don't have your number. The only reason why I'm here is because of Christina. She's been asking 'where's my daddy' and ' why don't I have a daddy like everyone else mommy' " I said tears in my eyes. "I'm struggling to survive. I work three jobs Matt. Most times I don't eat. The only reason why I'm here today is because Christina can't go without a father forever. She can't go through what I went through. You can either take a break from fucking every other whore you meet on tour and come meet your daughter or I'll find another man for her to call her father"

Zacky
"I was pissed off okay!? I was pissed off and hot headed and caught up in the rockstar life when I said that. Now that we're not together anymore I've realized what I've lost and I fucking regret it. I regret being stupid and tell you we're over Jordan." I said to her. " You can ask Brian. I haven't been the same. Most days I don't get out of bed unless it's to go to a show. I need you Jordan and I don't know how many times I'm going to have to tell you that before you realize I'm not lying"

@ What A Beautiful Lie
Matt moved sitting down on a box, closing his eyes he sighed out. "What do you want from me?" He practically whine, though his raspy voice it sound more like a plea. He lifted his head up, "you know you didn't have to buy those tickets." He told her, "all you ever had to do was reach out." He said. Their past wasn't easily forgotten, he had loved her for the majority of his high school life, and he even loved her for a long time after too. He couldn't say that he didn't love her.

---

Jordan looked away from him, not being able to meet his gaze. "Zack just saying sorry doesn't cut it." She sighed, turning to look at him, her teary eyes meeting his. "Things have changed." She sniffled, "I have a kid now." She informed him, "and I need a man, not a boy that going to run off and fuck a bunch of groupies, his father is already that way."

Skylar
"This was the only way i could get to you, every time i went to your parents you were on tour. As from what i want. I want my daughter's father in her life but if you still wanna have fun being wild and reckless then never mind."

Zack
I sighed "i havent been having sex. It's been years Jordan. And you should know that i will be more than willing to take care of both of you, even if we're not together"

@ What A Beautiful Lie
Matt sighed, before standing. "I don't know what I want." He said standing in front of her, "but I haven't been wild or reckless for the last year or so." He told her, "it's not just something you can drop on some one and expect them to be okay with it." He told her, shrugging.

---

Jordan stood there gaping at him, her eyes watering. "I'm not asking you to that." She sniffled, before turning away from him, moving away from him. She just couldn't handle the fact he was sweeping her off her feet. She wasn't expecting this, she thought he would be this massive man whore.
